Compression Neuropathy Caused by Pelvic Lymphocele after Laparoscopic Surgical Staging

Lymphocele is a complication of pelvic surgery that infrequently leads to compressive neuropathy. We present a case of compressive obturator neuropathy resulting from lymphocele development after pelvic surgery. Electrodiagnostic studies revealed severe axonal disruption in the left obturator nerve, which is associated with poor functional recovery. This case underscores the role of electrodiagnostic testing in the diagnosis and rehabilitation of patients experiencing lower limb weakness following gynecological pelvic surgery.
